TeVPA is a five day conference which aims to bring together leading scientists in the field to discuss recent advances in Astroparticle Physics.<br />
There is the possibility to host small workshops before and after the conference at DESY in Zeuthen (<a href="http://www.desy.de/about_desy/getting_there/zeuthen/index_eng.html" target="_blank">link</a>, ~50 km south of Berlin). In case of interest in this, please contact us at <a href="mailto:tevpa2018@desy.de">tevpa2018@desy.de</a>&nbsp;with a brief description of the workshop you would like to organize.FalseLVH, Luisenstraße 58, 10117 Berlin<a href="http://www.langenbeck-virchow-haus.de/" target="_blank"><b>LANGENBECK VIRCHOW HAUS</b></a>

Luisenstraße 58, 10117 Berlin2018-08-28T15:45:002018-08-28T16:05:0000:20Direct detection experiments are one of a few primary avenues for the potential detection of particle Dark Matter (DM). We introduce general new statistical methods to systematically study the model-discrimination power of these (and many other) instruments. In a nutshell, our approach allows one to study all possible benchmark models at once making general conclusions possible. As an application, we derive the exact boundary where near-future Xenon and Argon detectors will be (un-)able to dissect the DM-nucleon interaction and DM mass. We show that a simultaneous mass and coupling reconstruction only works in a small region of the parameter space (DM masses around 20-100 GeV) just below current detection limits. Furthermore, we show that inelastic contributions to the DM signal may further break the mass/DM-nucleon interaction degeneracy, motivating a more in depth analysis of additional signal contributions from a wider variety of models. Finally, we propose a new way to visualize the degeneracy breaking abilities of combinations of experiments, which we call Infometric Venn diagrams.posterPosterdochttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/word.pngword fileppthttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/powerpoint.pngpowerpoint filepdfhttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/pdf_small.pngpdf fileodthttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/writer.pngwriter fileodphttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/impress.pngpresentation fileodshttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/calc.pngspreadsheet fileotherhttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/file_small.pngunknown type filelinkhttp://indico.desy.de/indico/images/link.pnglink
